Chapter 63 Shen Baoshuang Seduces the Prince

When Concubine Chen hurried over, a sharp-eyed lady spotted her and said quickly, "The Concubine is here."

The ladies from the official families then noticed Concubine Chen Guifei and hurriedly turned around to greet her.

"What happened?" Although Concubine Chen Guifei was also anxious, she suppressed her emotions and asked softly.

Before Shen Baoshuang, who was kneeling on the ground, could speak, a pink-dressed woman standing nearby spoke up: "To answer the Imperial Concubine, when we walked here, we happened to see Shen Baoshuang tugging at the Crown Prince. It was really embarrassing for us women."

【Who is this? 】

Not only Lu Xingwan, but even Concubine Chen Guifei didn't know who this woman was. Instead, they felt a little unhappy because of her lack of etiquette and did not answer.

The woman turned her head and looked at Concubine Chen in surprise.

Seeing her like this, Jinyu scolded her, "How dare you! You not only answered the Imperial Concubine's question without first announcing your name, but now you dare to look directly at the Imperial Concubine."

When the woman heard this, she knelt on the ground and apologized: "I am Lin Yin, the daughter of the Minister of Personnel. I was negligent. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

But I was confused in my heart. Everyone said that the Royal Concubine was the kindest person. What happened now?

[Lin Yin? I haven't heard of this person. I think he is just a supporting role with no sense of participation.]

[Oh, no, this Lin Yin is really brave. Her father is the Minister of Personnel, and Shen Baoshuang's father is the Minister of Personnel. How dare she point at Shen Baoshuang and scold her like this? Isn't she afraid that her father's career will be hindered? ]

Concubine Chen Guifei didn't realize this until Lu Xingwan reminded her. She couldn't help but glance at Lin Yin.

"Get up!"

After saying this, he looked at Shen Baoshuang who was also kneeling beside the prince: "What does Miss Shen say?"

"Your Majesty, I didn't." When Shen Baoshuang looked up again, her eyes were full of tears. "It was Miss Lin's maid who told me that my sister sprained her ankle here, so I hurried here, but I didn't expect to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here."

Concubine Chen Guifei looked at Lin Yin again.

Concubine Chen Guifei's intimidating look made Lin Yin feel cold in her heart, and her voice trembled: "My queen, my maid has never left me for a moment. Shen Baoshuang is just making random accusations because she sees that things are going badly!"

His eyes were flickering and he didn't dare look at Concubine Chen Guifei.

She immediately made a judgment in her mind.

When the other young ladies from official families heard Lin Yin say this, they immediately started pointing fingers at Shen Baoshuang.

[Shen Baoshuang is not a bad person, but she used to act arrogantly in the capital, which has damaged her reputation. Now no one is willing to stand up for her. It is really pitiful.]

[I believe that she would be obsessed with the prince, but I don't believe that she would deliberately ask the prince out in a dark place and be misunderstood.]

However, Shen Baoyan had just arrived and saluted to Concubine Chen Guifei, then squatted next to her sister and stood up: "Miss Lin, please be careful with your words. Apart from Miss Lin and the maid beside her, who else saw my sister chasing His Highness here?"

But Lin Yin stammered and couldn't say anything.

Seeing this, Concubine Chen looked at the prince again: "What did Jin Yao say?"

"Madam Chen," the prince bowed, "just now a maid came to tell me that my second brother was waiting for me here, so I came here."

After saying this, the prince looked around and said, "It's just that I didn't pay attention to the maid's appearance, and now I can't recognize her."

Lin Yin, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief.

Others couldn't hear it, but how could Concubine Chen Gui, who had been on the battlefield for many years, not hear it?

She only said to Shen Baoshuang: "Don't worry, Miss Shen. Even if no one believes you about what happened today, I believe you."

Shen Baoshuang kowtowed in gratitude.

However, the prince naturally disliked Shen Baoshuang's entanglement in his words. Although he did not say it, he believed Lin Yin's words in his heart.

Although no one said anything, their eyes showed disgust towards her.

Seeing everyone like this, Shen Baoshuang said nothing more, and only kowtowed to Concubine Chen again, saying, "Thank you, Concubine, for your trust."

As he said that, he ran straight into the rockery beside him.

This caused all the young ladies to scream in surprise and retreat one after another.

The second prince was quick-witted and stepped forward to grab Shen Baoshuang, and brought up the wound from the past: "Miss Shen, your body skin was given by your parents, why hurt yourself because of a rumor."

Shen Baoyan hurried forward to thank the Second Prince, helped her sister up, and held her in her arms.

The Crown Prince also stepped forward and pulled the Second Prince aside to ask carefully, "Did Jin Yu get hurt?"

The second prince saw that the crown prince was worried and said with a smile, "It's okay, my brother."

For a moment, the rest of the young ladies from official families were silent. They really did not expect that Shen Baoshuang would choose to die to prove her innocence.

[Look at these young ladies from official families. They always act as if they don't care about anything. Just now, Shen Baoshuang almost lost her life because of these idle gossips.]

[I guess they don't care, after all, it's not their own life. ]

Unexpectedly, it was Han Xiyue who stood up and said, "I am willing to believe Miss Shen."

This surprised Rong Wenmiao who was beside her. She couldn't help but reach out and pull her: "Sister Han."

Han Xiyue just shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

Shen Baoshuang froze for a moment because of Han Xiyue's words.

Seeing this, Concubine Chen Guifei said, "Forget it, don't let these little things disturb your interest, everyone should continue to visit the garden!"

Then he turned to look at Shen Baoshuang: "Miss Shen, would you please walk with me?"

Shen Baoshuang quickly turned to look at Concubine Chen Guifei, nodded with tears in her eyes, and comforted Shen Baoyan beside her before following Concubine Chen Guifei.

After receiving Concubine Chen's order, the others just wanted to join in the fun and did not dare to take another step forward. They just watched Concubine Chen and Shen Baoshuang walk forward.

"Thank you very much, Concubine Chen, for your trust." Shen Baoshuang said as soon as she left the crowd.

Concubine Chen Guifei smiled and looked at her: "I trust you because I trust Miss Shen's character, but it won't work if I'm the only one who believes in you."

Shen Baoshuang nodded and said nothing more.

"I do have something else I want to discuss with Miss Shen." After a moment's silence, Concubine Chen Guifei finally spoke first.

"Your Majesty, you want to talk about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

When Concubine Chen Guifei heard her say this, she turned to look at her in surprise.

"In fact, for me, my entanglement with the prince may have been love at first sight, but later on, the prince gradually got tired of me. I don't know whether I was doing it for love or to save face."

"I think my entanglement must have troubled Your Majesty!" Shen Baoshuang said, looking at Concubine Chen Guifei with apology.

Concubine Chen shook her head: "The prince didn't tell me these things, and now I am even more worried about Miss Shen."
